1. Ampere meter
Used to measure electric currents in circuits, they measure electricity and inform if a circuit is working appropriately and if it is using right voltage.

2. Calibrator
A device used to adjust accuracy in several meters, testers, sensors, instruments, etc of all sorts and calibrate them to meet the accurate specifications required.

3. Counter/Timer
They are used to measure and display time intervals, count a specific event or process completed similar to a clock signal mainly used in electronics.

4. Digital energy meter
An important device that is compatible to consuming commercial energy distributed, it allows efficient pricing of energy consumption by an individual or a business consumer.

5. Digital temperature controller
Mainly used in electronics, instrumentation and control automation to measure and control temperatures in devices, it is also used at homes and in industrial applications.

6. Electrical tester
Used to check AC and DC voltage, amperage, basic circuit continuity, open and short circuits, polarity, they are designed to test and measure the electrical conditions.

7. Metal detector
Detects presence of metals around and is used for security screenings at airports, courts and prisons to detect the concealed metal weapons on an individual’s body.
